Furious 7 is tearing up the Box Office

I gotta say I am a bit surprised by this. Not that these movies aren’t bad ass but I didn’t expect it to make this much money and be this highly reviewed. Furious 7 did $143 mil at the box office on its opening weekend and is Certified Fresh by Rotten Tomatoes with a critic rating of 83%. That has got to be the highest for the franchise which has turned into a juggernaut from the original one off car porn movie it started out as. At the beginning of the weekend when I heard the opening night numbers I figured it was most likely due to The Crow Effect. (Star of film dying before film is completed) but judging by the reviews I think I was wrong and this is definitely one I will have to check out.
